A BIOTECH RACE AGAINST TIME TO DEVELOPย MILITARY-GRADE DRAGONS. Brilliant genetic engineer Noah Parker is pitted head-to-head against the founder of Build-a-Dragon to design custom dragons for the military.ย 

Genetic engineer Noah Parker has at last landed the job he's long coveted: director of dragon design for the Build-A-Dragon Company. With a combination of genetic engineering and a cryptic device known as the Redwood Codex, he and his team can produce living, breathing dragons made-to-order. But sales of dragons have plummeted, and the Build-A-Dragon Company will have to find new revenue streams if it hopes to stay in business. A contract to develop dragons for the U.S. military promises a much-needed lifeline. Yet the specs are more challenging than anything Noah has ever designed. Worse, he learns that a shadow company headed by former CEO Robert Greaves has stolen the dragon-making technology to make a competing bid. Noahโ€™s dragons will face off against those of his old adversary. Itโ€™s a head-to-head design competition, with the ethical future of domesticated dragons hanging in the balance.

About Deploying Dragons:
โ€œFull of thrilling invention and discovery and show-stealing dragons, this one is for every reader whoโ€™s ever dreamed of riding or at least training their very own winged beast.โ€ โ€”Library Journal

โ€œA fast-paced and funny ride, this book will keep readers entertained.โ€ โ€”Booklist

About Domesticating Dragons:
โ€œKoboldt delivers a funny and immersive look at the world of genetic engineering. . . . With characteristic verve, Koboldt contrasts the playful adventure plot with eerie dystopian setting and a searing examination of corporate greed and ambition. Fans of inventive speculative fiction are sure to be pleased.โ€ โ€”Publishers Weekly

โ€œItโ€™s entertaining, interesting, and Koboldt does a fantastic job of keeping the pace steady and consistent. All-in-all a fantastic, and definitely different, follow-up to his debut trilogy. Iโ€™ll take more of this, please!โ€ โ€”SFF World

โ€œLab-based science fiction, with its grounding in the real world, real situations and people who feel like friends rather than out-of-this-world superheroes is a lot of fun when itโ€™s done right. Itโ€™s done right in Domesticating Dragons, with its geeky hero who saves the day, gets the girl and fulfills all of our dreams of dragons.โ€ โ€”Reading Reality

About Dan Koboldt:
โ€œ. . . very readable and highly enjoyable. . . . Characters that are more than the sum of their parts, a world that has so much to offer, and a story that races along apace . . .โ€ โ€”SFF World on The World Awakening
